Whiskey Poison

The hottest man I’ve ever seen is now my new boss— and I’m stuck in a house with him… Until one of us cracks. I’ve got debt—yeah, I know, so does everyone else on Planet Earth. But the bills I’m paying keep my dad and my grandma alive. So it’s pretty messed-up for Timofey Viktorov to use them as a threat to keep me under control. Not that he cares. As a billionaire CEO, he takes no prisoners in the boardroom. And as the don of the Viktorov Bratva, he takes no prisoners in real life, either. Which is why he has no qualms about extorting me into taking his deal. Live in my mansion… Care for my baby… Or suffer the consequences. But he’s not the only one with an agenda. Timofey has skeletons in his closet—and I’m determined to dig them out. He’s just as determined to keep me far away from the secrets of his past. The longer I’m in his house, the tenser things get. Every time we brush past each other in the hallway, something sparks. Every time we cross paths in the night, the ice grows thinner. Sooner or later, it’s going to crack.

CHAPTER 44

TIMOFEY

The knock on the bathroom door sends Piper shooting off like a firework.

She knocks against the stall door behind her. It swings open, and the only reason she doesn't tumble into the toilet is because I grab her hand and reel her back against my chest.

"Hello?" a male voice from the hallway calls. "Is anyone there? The door isn't supposed to be locked."

"Wait," I ordered him.

I'm going to need at least a second, maybe several, to get rid of my raging hard-on. Based on the way Piper is looking at me, horrified and filled with shame, I assume sex is off the table.

There's a pause. "This is a women's restroom, sir. If you don't come out, I'll have no choice but to—"

Frustrated in several ways, I reach back to flick the bolt and yank the door open.

The middle-aged manager barely reaches my elbow, but he's high on power. "Please retake your seats or I'll have to ask you both to leave."

"I had no clue using the bathroom was a crime," I drawl.
